Start a New Business

We realize the importance of small business.  As a result, Sterlington is committed to making it as easy as possible to interact and work with the government.  Please realize that this page is a work-in-progress.  Our final vision is for our Occupational License to be an online submittal form allowing you to quickly and easily file, and only requiring you to come in person for your signatures.
